I added perl-base to the list; but get this:
gene@coyote:~$ sudo apt-get install --allow-downgrades perl-base
libwxgtk3.0-dev=3.0.2+dfsg-4 libwxgtk-media3.0-dev=3.0.2+dfsg-4

perl-base is already the newest version (5.24.1-3+deb9u7).
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libwxgtk-media3.0-dev : Depends: wx3.0-headers (= 3.0.2+dfsg-4) but
3.0.4+dfsg-4~bpo9+1 is to be installed
Depends: libwxgtk-media3.0-0v5 (= 3.0.2+dfsg-4)
but 3.0.4+dfsg-4~bpo9+1 is to be installed

Those packages that are named aas to be instalkled, are in fact
installed.
Now, if I have intentionally "held" broken packages, should those
packages not be mentioned in preferences.d?
gene@coyote:~$ ls -l /etc/apt/preferences.d/
total 0
I don't have all of the apt stuff installed, but I'm going to add aptsh
and apt-show-versions. Somewhere, and I have asked how to get apt to
actually name the %$@^& problem package and been ignored, what, at least
5 times in this thread. But if it has a problem with a package that is
causing all this BS, then it seems to me it ought to be able to name the
exact @*&@& package.
So lets get to it and issue the command that will identify THAT package.
Experimenting here, apt-show-versions | grep newer spits out several
hundred lines.
sudo aptsh
orphans has been grinding along, burning up one core for around 10
minutes. killed it with a root htop after 15 minutes of no output.
Your turn.
